Jewish Short Story Discussion Group
Sunday mornings from 10:00-11:00 am
February 11 and 18, March 4 and 11, 2018.

Join us for coffee and bagels in the TE swing space before we start this lively series.

Interested in joining a book discussion group, but so pressed for time that finishing a long novel seems daunting? The solution? Come to TE’s Jewish Short Story Discussion Group. Nothing to read ahead of time! We will read the story live and aloud, and then discuss it. One story will be read and discussed at each get-together. The group is moderated by Temple Emanuel member Bennett Lovett-Graff, who holds a doctorate in American literature.

The Jubilee Year and Beyond: Milestones and their Meanings
This final unit examines the way in which we relate to the passing of time. What are our responsibilities as individuals and a people who are now capable of shaping our own future? How can we, in the shadow of the debates over the meaning of our shared past, embark on a path which will enable us to maintain a shared future?
